qumf r ee'vg means i3 41u:- gmffen me form of a stand pipe having bothends or its top and bottom closed Shown. The bottom o" the Weak liquorreceptacle 15 is arranged i'ush with the bottom of the gew erator tank,while the top oi" this receptacle is spaced a. distance Delon/ the topof the tank :for obvious reasons. A, port or outlet 16 .is prona'tled atthe tower end ot the Weak liquor receptacle 15 `for the outlet of weakliquor so that it can be conducted to a cooler or abeorlie'r or any ohervdesired place. l The upper end of the weak liquor receptaclecommunicates with the same end of the generator tank 4 bv means of shorttubes 17v extending throiigliithe walls of the heating chamber and Weakliquor receptacle and fmm aseages fo ammonia gas vfrom the y weak liquorreceptacle to the generator tankK A heating coil 18 is arrangedvertically Ain the heating chamber 8 and has its inlet end extendingthrough the' wall of the lieating chamber to communicate with thebottorn ofthe generator tank 4, While its upper outletend is extendedinto the top of the weak liquor receptacie 15 as shown at 19 below thegas tubes 17". The Convolutions or". this coil are 'spaced lfrom thewalls of the heating chamber andthe Weak liquor receptacle 1T es shown.y r

n the modification shown in Figure the arrangement of parte ispractically the Same'as the 'forni shown in Figure 1 with the exceptionof 'the lower end of the heatin chamber being closed'ae at 2O and theSaid ciosed end being provided with an outlet 2,1. The top of the weakliquor nec-cptado-15 instead of tern'iinating short ot' the top o thegenerator tank, extends to' meet the'same and a portion ot the top ofthe tank 4 forms a'closui'e for the top ot the yWeak liquor receptacle.The top of the heating chamber ie providedwith an inlet port 22throughwhich a heating medium, such as'stearn may be ejected into the heatingchamber. Thisrheating mediumhae its out` let through the port :21. y

In operation, the tank contains alsupply of vaqua ammonia which iscaused to enter the heating coil 18 and to move upwardly there#` in bymeans of the coil being heated either by a direct ameapplied to the'lower end of the heating chamberas shown in Fig- 'ure 1, or the ejectionof a heat-ing element vinto the cliamben from .the topthereof yand in'Figure -heated 'to a very high degree,

This ammonia beine is caused to break un into ammonia gas andf'reakliquor which are 'forced out of the7 upper end 19 of the heating coilinto the weak liquor receiving receptacle 15. The ook liquor falls totht, lover end of the recep-V tacleVwhilc the ammonia gas passes fromthe receptacle 15 through pipeel or tubes 17 into the top of thegenerator tank 4 to bo released therefrom through ports 11. The pressureof the gas in the wiwilc'riifpxoi re ceptacle 15 forces the Weak liquorthrough' ort 1G in the bottom of the receptacle yout into therefrigerating. apparatus.
